A kit from the brand DRAGON Models the kit “1/35 M4A3(75)W ETO – DRAGON 6698”.

This kit shows an M4A3 fitted with a 75mm M3 gun. The tank has wet stowage for the ammo rounds too. This kit is based on the very latest molds, and it builds upon recent Sherman plastic kit releases. It has accurate VVSS suspension, and the T-54E1 w/EEC tracks are made from DS to make them easy to assemble. New parts include the whole upper hull, while the accurate turret receives new brackets on the top where a spare machine gun barrel can be stowed. This highly detailed kit fills a void in the Sherman family, with the M4A3 being an extremely important tank in the Allied and US effort to liberate Europe.

Version Beutepanzer (Captured Armored Vehicles) of the British infantry tank "Infantry Tank Mk.III Valentine" with the three crew members.

HistoryBased on the Cruiser Mk II tank, the Valentine was designed by the Vickers-Armstrong Company and proposed to the Ministry of War in February 1938. Its designers had tried to combine the weight of a Cruiser tank (so as to be able to reuse the suspensions and transmission elements) with the armour of an infantry tank, which produced a small vehicle with a cramped interior and a turret served by two men. Although its engine is weaker than that of the Matilda tank, because of its lighter armour it had the same top speed and was much easier and cheaper to produce.

Sujet	6X4 Truck Krupp Protze (Kfz.70) Personnel Carrier

Une maquette chez Tamiya “6X4 Truck Krupp Protze (Kfz.70) Personnel Carrier“.

The L 2 H 43 and L 2 H 143 “Krupp-Protze” (unofficial designation) was a six-wheeled German truck and artillery tractor used by German forces in World War II. It was powered by a 55 hp or 60 hp (since 1936) Krupp M 304 4-cylinder petrol engine. Its main purpose was to tow artillery, especially the PaK 36. It was also used to transport infantry and other utility uses. This vehicle was extensively used on the Eastern Front, North African campaign and in France and Sicily. The “Krupp-Protze” was of relatively advanced design. It was mass-manufactured between 1933 and 1941. Its fuel consumption was relatively high (24 Litres / 100 km on road) in comparison to the comparable Opel Blitz 1.5 t truck (16.5 liters / 100 km, produced 1938 – 1942). Total production was about 7,000 units.

Le canon Ordnance QF 17 pounder (ou 17-pdr) est un canon anti-char britannique de calibre 76,2 mm en usage au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. C’était le meilleur canon anti-char des alliés : équipé d’obus perforants, il pouvait détruire le blindage de presque tous les chars allemands. Il fut utilisé sur son propre affût et équipa de nombreux chars de combats. Les britanniques l’utilisèrent aussi pour réarmer des véhicules étrangers, par exemple les chasseurs de chars Sherman Firefly, qui mirent leurs unités de tanks au niveau de celles des allemands. En tant que canon anti-char, il fut remplacé après la guerre par le 120 mm BAT sans recul. Sur les chars, il fut remplacé par l’Ordnance QF 20 pounder.

The Tiger I (Tigre), char d’assaut allemand, est l’un des chars les plus connus de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, bien qu’il n’ait été que peu produit par rapport au T-34 soviétique ou au Sherman américain. Ce sont ses dimensions, ses lignes très carrées, sa résistance au combat, sa puissance ainsi que les équipages expérimentés l’ayant mené au feu qui ont marqué les esprits, notamment du fait de la propagande allemande.

Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.H Mid-Production - DRAGON 6526

Type	Scale model
Scale	1/35
Topic	Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.H Mid-Production

A kit from the brand DRAGON Models the “Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.H Mid-Production Sep-Nov ’43”.

Dragon’s newest 1/35 Panzer IV Smart Kit shows such an Ausf.H variant. Specifically it’s a subtype produced from September-November 1943. While it uses a good number of components from previous Panzer IV kits, there are also newly tooled parts to enable an accurate rendering of this Ausf.H Mid-Production tank. The air filter is located on the right-hand side of the hull, which required the kit designers to remake the hull plate, for example. Slide-molded parts are widely resorted to, plus there are also metal parts such as the side skirts to give a true-to-scale thickness. This is another welcome arrival, allowing modelers to easily replicate a specific Panzer IV subject dating from the late 1943 timeframe.
